How Did NBC News Amplify Adam Schiff’s Misinformation?

NBC News left key context out of a YouTube video sharing House Intelligence Committee Adam Schiff’s opening remarks at a mid-September committee hearing on the whistleblower complaint against President Donald Trump.

Schiff fabricated Trump’s words in his statement, in a performance he later said was “meant to be at least part in parody” of Trump’s conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

But NBC News provided YouTube viewers with no indication that Schiff’s remarks were inauthentic.

All the news that's fit to lie about.

All the news that's fit to lie about.

They do more damage by just omitting half the story. They didn't lie about Schiff. They simply (deliberately) failed to tell the viewing audience that Schiff was making it all up.
The half story is many times worse than an outright lie.
Let's make no bones about it...undoubtedly, 95% of the people at NBC News hate Trump and regard Schiff as a truth-telling hero who deserves to be on a large stage....like the one NBC News provides for cranks like him.

And, that's a lie.  Or, several.

A lie is deliberately tell a mistruth. 
If you run crying to ma or pa and say that I hit you, you might have told the truth.
But if you left out that you struck me first and I was simply retaliating, you told a half truth.
You weren't lying....you were crying because I struck you. But you told a half truth and left out your guilt in the matter.

It's a lie of omission. NBC deliberately presented a false image.  It's a lie.

I wonder how many of the 12 geriatric people who still care about anything NBC News reports, felt when they found out they were lied to?
